He doesnt typicallymatch look likeo the scarytime bad guydream that wouldo be residingit in Hell. Haruka would be considered slightly tall for the age he appears, even more so if the time he was from was considered. He has a lithe form though he remains muscular, especially at his back and arms due to all of his swimming. He has a average skin color, a bit on the fair side in colder areas since he can't be outside and swim. Haruka has black hair he keeps neatly cut to his neck with a few layers cut intoit it. His bangs are slightly in his face but whenever he flips his hair fabulously he allows it to be seen in all its glory. His eyes are bright blue, almost too blue sometimes, matching the color of the ocean.

It doesn't matter what he's wearing, it seems he is always wearing his bathing suit under any outfit, ready to strip down to it in a moment's notice. It is black with blue tubing going down the sides. The trunks themselves stop right above his knees, hugging his legs closely.

Normally he wears a black T-shirt that isn't overly tight yet still hugs his torso closely. Over that he wears a blue sweat shirt, left open for easier removal. He also wears a pair of dark blue, jean pants with white sneakers on his feet which are often tied loosely again for easy removal. He usually won't wear socks unless he's forced to just because they are more to take off.

Its true that Haruka usually wouldn't be the type that would be damned right into Hell except in the eyes of a homophobe. He is relatively calm and even when he reacts with people aside from Rin his rather nice, just a bit quiet. Even when he's alone with Rin he can be quiet though he seems happier at times, perhaps a bit distant though. This is because of a constant voice in his head he can only relate to water itself.

Water was what he found absolute solace in. Nothing could hurt him as long as the water accepted him and in time the water itself began to talk to him. It was as if it could sense that Rin was a danger to him, right from the last few years of his human life. To this day it fills his head with thoughts of killing the man which he did indeed do during his life. It isn't a constant thing. He can be totally normal when the water isn't speaking to him. When it does though he will distance himself from Rin, trying to not being around him too much in case he makes a move, giving into the water's will. He seems to become a different, more violent person, attack Rin and sometimes others just to calm that urge before acting out on Rin himself. He becomes apathetic even though he knows Rin hates it above many other traits, both wanting to stay disconnected and distracted by that voice. Rin has even killed him in the past because of this change, giving them an odd relationship.

When he is free of that whispering voice he can be his normal self. He is calm, still a bit distant but that's just his personality. He's much kinder, not really liking to hurt anyone.

He is still in love with the water when he's not hearing it. If he could he would spend his time in a pool of water and never leave it. He even sits in tubs for hours just to be surrounded by it. He always wears his swim trunks so that he can always be ready to swim. he can undress in seconds to jump right into any body big enough for him. This is also a habit he has when fighting. He is a water user, fittingly enough and prefers to feel it on his skin when he can so his top is quickly shed and sometimes even his pants and shoes.

Haruka is unnaturally sexy while he fights. He never fights with a shirt on and looking too close can be a fatal flaw for an opponent.

Name: Hairflip of Wonder
Type: Offensive
Cost: Low
Range: Medium
Description: Haruka produces water around his head for a moment. When he flips his hair it whips of off its ends, sending thin, practically solid blasts of water at his target. These will pierce skin though not do a lot of damage. This technique also has an unintentional side effect of leaving his opponent, and sometimes even allies in a slightly hypnotic state due to his sheer sexy fabulousness. The duration of this effected depends on his opponent's sex drive.

Name: Strike a Pose
Type: offensive
Cost: low-medium
Range: medium-long
Description: Haruka dramatically throws out his hand, giving a quick jerk of his hips in that hands direction and from it a rushing whip made up of water is produced that can be up to 15 feet long. He can have one in each hand if he chooses to. If he has one it can last for 4 posts and with two they can last for 3. Any given time during these posts when he has two activated he can bring his hands together and shoot them forward in one blast of sharp piercing water. The cool down for this is 3 posts. Their is often a few drops that will splash back onto his face and torso, dripping down his skin slowly and sensually and again leaving him on a level of sexiness high enough to fangirl/boy over , friend or foe.

Name: Bend and Snap
Type: Offensive
Cost: Medium
Range: long
Description: Haruka has to bend over to charge up this attack, gathering water around his hand and around his feet. His other hand stays conveniently placed on his hip as he is doing this. In a few seconds, usually counting to three just for timing purposes, he stand up straight in a quick snap, his hand whipping out in the direction of his target. The water he had gathered around his hands and feet flies toward his target with a speed and force able to knock them down. If his charge ups for the entirety of a post it can fire enough to choke them slightly if their head is caught in it. This blast of water is 5 feet in diameter when charge for a song post and 10 feet in diameter when charged for 2 and can blast out to 35 feet from Haruka. Much like his other techniques he unintentionally sets up anyone with eyes for a bit of a show. The Bend and Snap is often used in the human world to catch the eye of a mate and unknowingly Haruka does the same thing. His hair even flips to gain further drop dead sexiness. This has a cool down of 3 when single charged and 4 when double charged.

Name: Shower Scene
Type: Offensive
Cost: High
Range: Long
Description: Haruka gathers water all around him, running his hands up his torso as he does so. When he reaches his head her shoots both of his hands up into the air, a large blast of water following suit from around him, flying up 50 feet. Once it reaches its peak it rains down in long, spike like forms of solid-like water that are able to pierce the flesh of those they hit. Several Hundred of these fall down in a diameter of 75 feet around Haruka, varying in lengths from two feet to ten feet. Some of the water comes back down on Haruka himself in a lighter spray, none of it mixing into his spikes. Instead they are normal sized droplets that fall down on him like rain. with his body stretched out from just putting his hands up it looks like he in rinsing off in a show, beads of water dripping of of his flesh and soaking his hair which he will often flip making this even more difficult for those who look at him to not be entranced. The cool down for this is 6 posts.

Name: Strip Down
Type: Defensive
Cooldown: 3 posts
Cost: low
Range: self
Description: Water pours out from his skin, coating his entire body. It will set at an inch away from his skin and protect him from one hit. If a hak is higher than his sei he will feel the left over pressure. Also if he is wearing any clothes except his skin tight swim suit they will slip off of his body. Afterward he is left dripping wet which is also pretty hot.

For: American Horror Toga
Name: Reasons to cry like Ben Harmon
Type: Offensive
Cooldown: once per thread
Cost: High
Range: All the range..long
Description: This technique requires Haruka to actually get upset about something, so needless to say it can rarely be used. When Haruka shed s a tear though, this ultimate attack is started. His entire body will flow with water after that single tear, creating a large puddle of water under him in no time. By bringing a hand up to his face to wipe his single tear away, he calls upon the water he has produced. Coming up into the air, they for hundreds of small tear drops. At that point they launch themselves in all directions. These droplets are nearly as solid as a bullet, and the number of them make them deadly. Unlike Ben Harmon, Haruka's crying face is one of perfection. It becomes a distraction of fabulousness from the oncoming attack. Afterward his is left in a state of appealing vulnerability and sensitivity.. in appearance. His more light hearted opponents likely wouldn't be able to attack at this point, maybe even the cruel ones since he's just so damn flawless.

Haruka was born in japan as an only child to his mother and father. They were well off enough to not have to worry about too many things and they seemed like an ordinary family raising their first child. His mother stayed at home with him during the days, clearly not ever working outside of the housewife that was expected of her while his father started going into business with the world that was opening up bit by bit. There was nothing special about them from the outside. It was once one was inside that something was clearly off.

His mother suffered from terrible depression after he was born. She couldn't stand to be in the same room as him more often than not, only taking care of him because she loved her husband. Sometimes it became too much for her though. Haruka didn't remember the early years when his mother would attempt to drown him, running baths that were meant to be peaceful then quickly turned what should have been deadly to the young child. Somehow though he was never in that much toruble when his mother woudl realize and pull him back up, forcing the water from his lungs. She never told a soul of the things she did and Haruka did not yet have the words to. Even when he did he didn't say anything. It never got too life threatening, the water accepting him fully and in some way not letting itself takes his life like a protective mother the child really needed.

From this young age Haruka had a deep love for the water, sitting in the tub for hours or going to the beach when it became warm enough. The water was the thing he loved most in the world. He couldn't survive without it. He needed it. It sheltered and cared for him like nothing else ever did.

That didn't mean it fully saved him from his mother's wrath though. Her hatred toward him never seemed to go away. It continued on for seven more years. He could fight back more as he grew older but she also just tried even harder, going to extreme methods of tying him up, gagging him, putting weights around his neck and holding his head down under the surface. The effects got more extreme. There was only so much that the water could do for him the way things were now. He was close to dying on a couple of occasions, one he and his mother brushed off as accidents of him falling asleep. His was too afraid of her to tell the truth.

One day things got extremely bad for Haruka. She had bound his hands, even tying a rope tight around his neck, choking him up before she submerged him in the bath he had been relaxing in. He lost air quickly, breathing in nothing but the water that filled his lungs. He felt himself slipping like he only had a few times before. The water also aided as he thrashed his hands around, loosening up the ropes somewhat. It was then that he heard a whisper in his ear. It wasn't voice he had hear before but it was the most calming voice he had ever heard. It could only be the water. It told him to kill, to kill his mother who was trying to kill him.

He went limp under the influence of its soothing voice and for a moment his mother was convince she had killed him, letting go immediately in horror. Then suddenly Haruka thrashed out of the water, his hands completely free. One hand went to loosen the rope around his neck. The other instantly fisted into his mother's long black hair with a grip unnatrually strong. He held her there for a moment, glaring at her with eyes that clearly read the normal Haruka that usually just went along with whatever was somewhere else right now. She looked up to him in fear, clearly worried.

Haruka yanked her forward, pulling her head right toward the edge of the tub where it connected with a sick cracking sound. He let go right after, letting her slip to the floor motionlessly. Much to her luck she had actually done a dangerous thing and attempted this while Haruka's father was home. He had overheard the thrashing in the tub and had made his way there to the scene that awaited him. There Haruka stood in the tub, clear marks on his neck and wrists from the rope that was sitting on the floor now. Right next to it was his unconscious mother. It was hard to figure out what had happened. His mother had been rushed to the doctor and once she was taken care of the same doctor came to their home to tend to Haruka who seemed to be completely back to normal, a bit distant but clearly not as disturbed as he had been earlier.

From that point his mother was no longer allowed to be left alone with Haruka. Two of his Father's sisters moved in, taking care of the boy instead of his own mother. He didn't hear the whispering voice of the water anymore, not even when he would bathe for hours, dipping fully in every once in a while until his breath ran out. No matter what he tried it didn't speak to him.

Haruka's life went on rather uneventfully for the next few years. He had a few friends he would see from time to time though he didn't fully connect with any of them. It wasn't until a new family moved into the house next door when he was ten that things changed for Haruka. The family that moved in had a son the same age as Haruka. That family came over for a welcoming one night. At first he was unsure about the other boy. He wasn't like himself at all. Haruka didn't see how he would ever get close to the boy.

Oddly enough though when he was given a suggestion, which was basically an order, to take this new boy, Rin, to his own room to play for a bit he found he was quite wrong in his assumption. It was true that the two weren't alike, at least not on the outside. It turned out they had more in common than they thought they would. Above all else both of them had a love for the water that nothing could compare to. At least not yet.

Haruka was seeing Rin everyday from then on. Haruka seemed to finally be moving on from what had already happened in his life. He was safe now and he was able to make a friend with something other than water. The two of them were nearly inseparable. This went on for years and he found himself happier than he had ever been. He was getting close to people again. While he might now have had the outgoing personality Rin did, he was still a lot more friendly than he had been before. He was able to joke around and do normal teenager things when they reached that age. He was dragged through a lot of troublesome things, breaking into old buildings just because that's what boys were doing and Rin was always with him.

Haruka noticed another change in himself as they continued to grow older together. By the time he was fourteen he finally put a name to whatever he had been feeling for the past few years. He had fallen for Rin some time ago and finally he realized it. He wasn't sure exactly how to handle this new piece of information though. Being gay wasn't exactly the most honorable or accepted thing. Haruka was a bit worried but no matter what he knew that this was right. He was just starting to build up the courage to confess when out of the blue Rin asked him out on a date, leaving a rather shocked Haruka who accepted the offer moments later. How could he deny the man that he had fallen in love with. Now he was truly happier than he had ever been. It met the joys of being water and perhaps even more.

If the two boys hadn't been close before, they were now. Yes it was true they were still very young but both of them knew what it was they felt. They spent every waking minute together and more often than not would have sleep overs nearly every night. Haruka's father was starting to travel on business and didn't trust his wife still to be alone with Haruka, his sister's moving out and getting married so he was forced to take her with her, leaving Haruka's home empty for him and Rin. They used the excuse that it was just so Haruka wouldn't be lonely and would remember to actually eat as opposed to sitting in the tub all day.

They took full advantage of their alone time. Again they were young but the knew what they felt. Rin had some experience he said he was taught, leaving Haruka a bit confused. Who taught him these things were beyond him all he knew was that when Rin used what he learned Haruka was in absolute bliss. The two of them were in love and showing it in every way they possibly could. They spent nearly three years in their paradise this way. Haruka couldn't ask for more.

Then it happened. Haruka was taking one of his daily soaks in his tub, submerging himself and suddenly there was a tiny whispering in his head telling him to kill. He shoot out of the water instantly, startled after the ten year silence. He caught his breath, clearly frightened. Then he dove back under, listening for more which he got. It was telling him that Rin was dangerous, that he needed to kill him before he got killed himself. Even when he broke the surface the voice still whispered to him, leaving him absolutely horrified. He remembered well what he had done the last time. That had been his mother, but this was Rin. He couldn't listen.

He began to put some distance between him and Rin. He would pretend to not be home sometimes when he knew Rin wanted to come over. When he was around Rin he didn't react the same to the kind things he did nor did he seem that excited about anything. He began to shrink back into that apathetic kid he had been before he met Rin, even though he knew Rin hated that kind of person. He just couldn't be that close to Rin, not until he was sure he wouldn't do anything, not until that voice left. Months passed and it never did. Haruka didn't even realize how much Rin was hating this person he was becoming.

It got to the point that any time he was around Rin that voice in his head would be yelling at him. He couldn't even talk to Rin most of the time let alone focus on what his beloved was saying to him half the time. It seemed he had driven Rin up a wall and he was beginning to slip up himself. He had dreams about killing Rin, feeling slightly relieved from the power of that voice when he first woke up until he remembered it wasn't real.

The night came where he just couldn't take it anymore. Rin had called him out to the beach and Haruka rushed there, ready to do whatever he had to. He was convinced that Rin was dangerous and that he had to put an end to it. Rin was waiting there for him, looking aggrivated but Haruka didn't care to even ask why. He just took the man's hand and kept walking when he passed by, pulling him toward the ocean. He wanted to do it in the water so it could see for itself.

The next thing he knew though his head was being shoved down under the surface of the water, held there by a hand a lot stronger than that of his mother's. He fought his way back up, looking up to a pissed off looking Rin fighting to push his head back down. The water had been right. Rin was trying to kill him. Haruka wasn't going to have that. His hand shot out of the water, grabbing hold of Rin's neck with that same strength he had before. He pulled rin down, holding his head down and shortly he was being dragged along with the man, the water rushing around them as they sank and got pulled out even further out by its current. Honeslty Haruka had no idea what was up or down anymore. He was getting weaker and tired and his mind was becoming hazy. It was only a matter of time before he lost consciousness though his grip on Rin didn't let up. He had to kill him. And he did along with Rin killing him himself.

Haruka found himself born into the depths of hell when he came to. Almost immediately he was killed again, attacked and slaughtered painful. He was reborn again, completely horrified by what he had just experienced. He went through hell avoiding anyone and everyone, not needing the aid the voice gave him to know he was in danger. He fought anyone in his way and ran when he could. That was at least until he met a certain individual.

He had been trying to lay low for what was barely a few months since he died and then there he was. Rin was walking around, right in front of him. He had been dragged down to hell too? It made sense. Haruka had done some thinking about it and come to the conclusion that they had likely killed each other. He didn't really think just being gay was enough to land him in that torture. Oddly enough when he saw Rin that voice didn't speak to him. There was silence which was strange. It had been going nonstop, only stopping when he laid eyes on the man. Was Rin okay now?

The only way to find out was the chance Haruka took. Putting aside the fact that Rin might still be pissed and try to kill him again Haruka walked right out from his hiding spot, knowing full well that Rin would be able to see him. Even if he didn't then he couldn't just ignore him as he walked right up to Rin, not really saying anything but showing more expression than he had shown Rin in a while. He was actually smiling though he was still feeling guilty for getting into this whole mess. Somehow Rin wasn't even that mad to see him too. He was back to himself after all. Rin couldn't be that mad at him.

The two put aside what had happened those last few months of heir living lives. Haruka even finally got around to explaining what had happened in his mind. He was convinced it wouldn't be a problem anymore. He was back with Rin and even if they were in Hell they could be happy together again. They fought side by side, getting stronger each time, nearly always equal in strength to each other in their own ways. They got by well enough,

After a few years though that voice came back. Haruka instantly regressed to the state he had been in before and just like before it ended up with him and Rin fighting against each other, usually until one of them, or both, were dead or at least close enough to death to satisfy the other. As they got stronger their fights became more brutal as well as more frequent, Haruka's water friend always being fearful of when the other man could turn on him. It didn't matter how many times this happened though. They would both revive together or one would go to meet the other where they would revive and start over from the beginning of their cycle, hoping maybe it would turn out differently the next time.

When Hell's gates opened up Haruka was one of the first that wanted to go. He didn't have to beg Rin too much. They were at a good point, only a few weeks after finding each other again. Haruka wanted to go back to earth so he could dive right into the water that Hell just didn't have for him. Despite water being the thing that messed with Haruka's head the both of them went back, waiting for whenever things would turn for the worst again.

This was a weird place. There were two stories of small stores that were anything but unique or original because about two stores away was one just like it with nearly the exact same stuff as far as Haruka could tell. Rin had dragged him out from a pool they had broken into to come to this Mall place he had wanted to check out. Haruka was really wishing he hadn't come along for once. They couldn't really even buy anything unless by some strike of luck some human had enough power to see them. Even then they didn't have money. Haruka wasn't one for going out shopping, even when he was alive so it just made the whole situation even more uncomfortable and strange for him now that everything had change. He was utterly bored. This was painful.

Haruka made a bit of a face as he followed Rin around. It couldn't have been too hard to figure out he didn't want to be here and was going through some withdrawals. That was until a crowd of people passed by and he saw it. He stopped dead in his tracks, his eyes suddenly lighting up. He could tell Rin was walking away but he had something else on his mind right now.

Haruka had his sweatshirt of in a fraction of a second before he bolted off running toward his target. Just about seventy-five yards away was a large water fountain deep enough for him to jump into. His shoes flicked off behind him, flying up into the air and probably landing somewhere on the second floor. His shirt was tugged up over his head and tossed away while his other hand undid his pants at the speed of light. He leaped up, jumping right out of his last piece of clothing save for his swimming trunks which he never dared to take off. He was flying through the air, showing off his fit form to about a total of one person that could actually see him. Seconds later he hit the water with a splash that startled all the humans around him that couldn't see the halfway naked man gliding right under the waters surface.

They couldn't bother Haruka as the leaped up with frightened squeals, clearly not understanding what had fallen into the water to cause the phenomenon. Haruka just floated back up to the surface, lying on his back, eyes closed in bliss as he floated there like a sex god, water causing his hair to flow and then some to cling to the sides of his face, drops running down his upper chest that was sticking out of the water. It was just like it was a completely normal thing to do. Rin could stay as long as he wanted to now. Haruka was more than happy to oblige him in coming here any time now.
